I ride my bike almost every day to work during the week. Ride as much as I can on weekends. I have an old P.O.S. ford truck I drive if its absolutely a must. Haven't put gas in the truck since february or so. Any chance I get I'm on the scoot!

I have a 6 year old cage that has 55,000 miles. These are all winter miles and taking my dogs for walks. I have a company car that I have to pay for gas out of each check, yet I leave it parked at work just so I can ride my bike back and forth. My bike is about 15 months old and has 28,000 miles and I live in Wisconsin. Get out of the cage and ride!

22 mile ride in to work, sometimes 100 miles or so home. I ride to work as often as possible, as long as I have a 75% chance of getting there semi dry, I'm riding. Still cold here in the mornings, some days as low as 24 deg, wear a few extra layers and turn the heated grips on. The ride home is always worth it!
